      I’ve been using the Cash App one and it’s totally free. It was formerly Credit Karma’s before TurboTax bought them and they were forced to divest the free tax program. I usually will run the same numbers through TurboTax and the results end up being the same.

      Protip: just fill out the paperwork! It walks you through it and takes no more time than making a pathfinder character. Tbh the whole act of doing it reminds me of making a ttrpg character: you get a template sheet and a booklet that walks you through it.

        if the free ones would automatically populate for free I would totally use them just to not do the data input. But since they are all bs and don’t actually do it for free I do the free fillable forms. Real pro tip is use a spreadsheet to add things up for wierd forms that don’t do stuff for you. I put my 1099’s in a spreadsheet and copied and pasted from it and it just made the whole thing easier to look over and verify. will do the same anytime I have multiples of the same form and then also for things like ira nonfillable pdf.

        So you’re the kind of person who enjoys filling out the paper registration for a product warranty, I suspect.
